alajones2 got me this at an antique store. Is it salvageable or do I just toss it in the recycling bin? It’s got some pretty deep pits.

That is going to take a couple of carbon off applications.

Will be interested to see how the aluminum held up.

Man, that thing is messed up. I hope you didn’t pay too much for it. I wouldn’t use it because those pits are going to fill with food and gonna need a hell of a cleaning after every time you use it.

Get away from aluminum pots, too many studies coming out saying it’s bad for you.

Go cast iron. Hit garage sales and thrift stores for them.

Here’s one I picked up for $1.

Here’s another I picked up for $2 (I don’t have any before pics

When he gave you that, did you say... “Ain’t no way... no way... that you come from my loins.”

Well, alajones2 is my old lady. But she only gave $10 bucks for it. She knew I always wanted a magnalite and figured it was worth a shot.

. Yeah. I was thinking once it starts forming holes it’s over with.

Bring it to the recycle place and get your $10 back.
